Man, it is looking really fantastic! Believe it or not I haven't tried Vallejo Air paint before... how do you like it compared to regular Vallejo paint? I assume you don't have to thin it... just pour and spray?

Great to see the Tram in the spray booth bro. I love the faded colors and especially the base for the rust and burnt area. Keep her going....at least a bit here and there

Thanks for the in depth knowledge regarding Vallejo primers. Your destroyed tram is a great way of showing off the kits detailed undercarriage. Will patiently wait for more on this dio.
Cheers Eh!

Thank You! I am moving into the finishing stages on this one and as part of the build I am going to write some sort of build review of the process for Armorma once complete. Washes on their way soon and placement of some figs and I think I can call it done!! |

Okay! This was one of those projects looming over the bench for entirely way too long!!  Well, I am goign to call it done!! I know I was originally going to have four figures on this but in the end, two made the grade and since this was slated for a feature on Armorama, I worked out doing a small feature as a quick guide to creating burnt metal instead. I show everything I did to get it to this point!! Please, feel free to stop by and have a read my friends!  "Am I late for the tram"?     I found a '300' setting on one of my programs...LOL!! Just for fun!!  Thanks for taking the time to not only stick with me on this long, drawn out project!! It was most appreciated! Cheers, T |

I was about to say you matched the historical photo perfectly...
Very cool project, and an incredibly real result. Fooled me completely until I read on! Truly well done!
